This study looks at how information about the heart may affect treatment decisions for people receiving radiation therapy for breast cancer. It aims to help reduce heart-related side effects from treatment.
This study looks at how radiation therapy affects the heart in people being treated for lung, esophageal, or breast cancer. By watching the heart during and after treatment, researchers hope to find ways to lower heart side effects.
This study watches how chemotherapy and HER2-targeted drugs affect your heart during early-stage breast cancer treatment. Researchers use heart scans to catch any changes early and understand how to protect heart health.
This study looks at how breast cancer medicines affect the heart. It may help doctors better prevent, spot early, and manage heart side effects from trastuzumab and/or anthracycline chemotherapy.
This study looks at how chest radiation treatment affects the heart and lungs in people with certain lung or esophagus cancers. It may help doctors better predict and prevent these side effects during curative (aimed at cure) radiotherapy.
